Question | Answer |
Peripheral resistance increases with: | Greater length, smaller diameter, and higher velocity
Poiseuille Law: demonstrates the influences on resistance of length, viscosity, and (inversely and powerfully) radius. |
The following arteries have low-resistance flow character.
A. ICA, Preprandial SMA, RA
B. ECA, Preprandial SMA, RA
C. ICA, {Postprandial SMA, RA
D. ECA, Postprandial SMA, RA
E/ OCA. SMA's | C. ICA, Postprandial SMA, and Renal Arteries |
Which statement re: the dorsalis pedis is NOT correct:
A Is ant to the med malleolus
B Is the continuation of the ant tib art
C Joins the pedal arch halfway down the dorsum of the foot
D Is a branch of the pero
E Begins at the bend of foot/ankle | D. This statement about the dorsalis pedis artery--"Its a branch of the peroneal artery"--is NOT correct.
The dorsalis pedis artery continues the anterior tibial artery to the pedal arch. |
Vessels and structures of the penis include all of the following EXCEPT:
A Deep artery of the penis
B Dorsal artery of the penis
C Corpus spongiosum
D Inferior vesicle artery
E Dorsal vein | D. Inferior vesicle artery |
Which of the following vessels is NOT found on or near the foot?
A Dorsalis pedis
B posterior tib
C peroneal
D circumflex
E All are found on or near the foot | D. The circumflex
There are several "circumflex" arteries, some mear or proximal to the groin. |
In B-mode imaging of the CFA and its bif into the profunda and SFA, normally the profuda courses: | A Posterolateral to the SFA |
The popliteal trifurcation is actually a double bifurcation; select the pairs forming these two bifurcations: | |
The axillary artery connects the: | Brachial artery to the subclavian artery. |
The great vessels arising from the aortic arch include all of the following EXCEPT the: | Right subclavian artery.
The right subclavian artery arises from the innominate artery (brachiocephalic trunk). Obviously this question assumes normal anatomy; there are frequent veriants with the brachiocephalic arteries. |
At the inguinal ligament, the external iliac artery becomes the: | Common femoral artery |
This vessel courses along the medial aspect of the poas muscle: | Internal iliac artery. |
